Question: What are good sports marketing colleges?
--San, Beaverton, Oregon
San: There are many factors to consider when researching a school. You may want to consider the cost, your chance of being accepted and the effect attending a particular school may have on your family and friends. To determine what school is right for you, it is best to research any potential school as thoroughly as possible.
That said, some of the top schools for sports marketing include:

Regarding sports broadcasting--you would want to go to any school that is strong in communications, basically. I would strongly suggest Syracuse University.
